Nets very rare goal
Morato scored one goal to go with one shot (one on goal) in Sunday's 3-2 loss versus Manchester United.
Analysis: Morato looked to get Nottingham back into the game Sunday despite the loss, as he netted a very rare goal via a corner kick in the 53rd minute. This marks his first goal of the season and his first since joining the club last campaign. He also added one interception, two tackles and five clearances in the defense.
Set for larger role
Morato is in the starting XI for Saturday's clash against Arsenal and is set to play his first minutes of the season.
Analysis: Morato is the surprise inclusion in the first starting XI of new coach Ange Postecoglou, as the Brazilian replaces the injured Ola Aina (hamstring) in the backline. The Nigerian is expected to be out for at least three months, giving Morato a larger role to play for Forest.
